   Can we get a HAVE_NETDEV_OPS?
   
Don't tell me you're seriously considering having _TWO_ copies
of all this code sitting around?

At that point backwards compat becomes absolutely rediculious.  If
it's important to you, just stick to the current scheme.  You gain
nothing by maintaining two copies of the same code.
